I thought for sure this article came from The Onion.

It's from The Borowitz Report, another satirical news site.

I saw the headline and was so pleased when I saw it was from The Borowitz Report. I was going PLEASEBESATIREPLEASEBESATIRE

There needs to be a tag called "the onion and friends" for satire sites.

ladypolitik October 27 2012, 18:35:36 UTC

Well, we do have a satire tag; should be enough.

fluffydragon October 28 2012, 14:31:36 UTC

but the satire tag isn't on it

fluffydragon October 28 2012, 14:32:17 UTC

nvm, I see the 'not intended' tag. I haven't had my coffee yet today.

“I think they’re like, finally, someone’s taking a more nuanced position on rape.”

How is it possible that I read the article to this line, convinced that this was a real article? I mean the first sentence seemed to set the author apart from the politicians, but the rape part could have come straight from the GOP...
